Class 28

Today We present our Fairytale Endings. WE had to take a fairytale and change the ending-- also, the moral had to show how creativity works in some way.....so we made Jack and the Bean Stalk into and action flick that emphasizes the seven principles from Michael Gelb's book, "The Genius in You-- The seven Leonardo Da Vinci Principles", where Jack is a drug addict. It gets crazy after that...so I'll post a piece of the script and give you the link to get the rest:

Narrator: Broke, desperate, and not knowing where the stalk would lead, Jack remembers something he learned from a book about Leonardo Da Vinci that he read some time ago. [SFUMATO]. Embracing the ambiguity of the stalk, Jack decides to climb it and see where it leads him.

[Jack climbing the bean stalk. Say “it’s an art museum! I can sell this for money to help both my family and my drug addiction! This is perfect!”]

Narrator: Jack thinks he’s hit the Jackpot. The only thing that stands in the way is a large, intimidating security giant who is the museum’s security guard. Still, Jack is excited that there is a chance to steal the art. He quickly tries to devise a plan................

(P.S. We even have a sword fight!)

The other group that I liked the most also did Jack and the Bean Stalk rendition. They told the story quickly once through and then promptly stop and say "You think that's how it really went down? Nah, this is the real story..." and the whole story is about how Jack goes on a giant drug trip.....hahaha.
